    COFFEE IS AMAZING. I FIGURED OUT HOW TO SET THE TIMER ON MY NINJA COFFEE POT LAST NIGHT AND IT WOKE ME UP FROM A DEAD SLEEP. I WAS DOWNSTAIRS BEFORE IT FINISHED BREWING - MY NINJA ONLY TAKES 6 MINUTES. I WAS HOPING THIS WOULD WORK BECAUSE ALARM CLOCKS START THE DAY OFF ON A SOUR NOTE. I DON'T LIKE 'EM. ALSO, I NEED A NEW COFFEE CUP. SOMEONE BROKE MINE - NO ONE WILL ADMIT TO IT BUT I'M GOING TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF IT - AND I'M DRINKING OUT OF A STARLABS CUP WITH THE FLASH ON IT THAT MY SON GOT IN SOME GAMER BOX SUBSCRIPTION. I THINK IT'S KINDA CUTE BUT MY SON SAYS HE WANTS TO USE IT FOR HOT CHOCOLATE THIS WINTER.THE BEST COFFEE CUP I EVER HAD WAS ONE I PICKED UP DRIVING THROUGH SOUTH OF THE BORDER ON MY WAY TO A WEDDING BACK IN 1994. I HAD THAT CUP FOR 15 YEARS; IT LASTED LONGER THAN THE MARRIAGE.

    I GOT SUCKERED INTO TAKING THE BOYS TO THE UFC FIGHT AT PHILIPS ARENA TONIGHT. THEY TOLD ME THE MAIN THING WAS AT 10 PM. THE PAY PER VIEW FIGHTS STARTED AT 10 AND IT DIDN'T END UNTIL AFTER MIDNIGHT SOME TIME. WE GOT THERE AT 7 PM. I WAS BORED AND WINE WAS 12.00 A CUP!!!! APPARENTLY, THE WHOLE FAST AND FURIOUS CAST WAS THERE. THEY'RE FILMING F & F 289 IN ATLANTA. THE BOYS WERE IMPRESSED THAT WE COULD SEE VIN DISEL. I DON'T THINK IVE EVER SEEN ANYTHING WITH VIN DISEL. LUCKILY, THE LAST FIGHT ONLY LASTED ABOUT A MINUTE. AS SOON AS I SAW THE CHAMP GO DOWN AND NECK BEARD GUY JUMP ON HIM AND START POUNDING I MADE A BREAK FOR THE DOOR AND GOT THE HELL OUT OF THERE.

    THINGS I LEARNED ABOUT UFC.

    1. ABOUT HALF THE FIGHTS SEEMED TO ONLY LAST LESS THAN A ROUND.

    2. IT'S A SAUSAGEFEST. TRUE STORY, I ACCIDENTALLY BUMPED INTO A YOUNG MAN AND SAID EXCUSE ME AND HE REPLIED, NO PROBLEM, M'LADY. I THINK HE MUST WORK AT THE RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL IN THE SPRING.

    3. LOTS OF CHANTING.

    4. I SAW ONE MAN BARF. AT FIRST, I THOUGHT IT WAS A MEDICAL EMERGENCY BUT WHEN SECURITY GOT TO HIM THEY ALL STOOD AROUND LOOKING AT EACH OTHER LIKE, THAT'S NOT MY JOB.

    5. ODDLY ENOUGH, THE MEN ALL DRESS IN T-SHIRTS AND SHORTS BUT THE WOMEN WERE ALL WEARING SLUTTY DRESSES. I WASN'T. I JUST WORE A NICE CASUAL OUTFIT. THE BOYS SAID I WAS OVER DRESSED AND HAD I BEEN A GUY, I WOULD'VE BEEN. IT WAS BIZARRE TO SEE WOMEN ALL DRESSED UP WITH MEN LOOKING LIKE HOBOS. GEEZ, PUT ON A DAMN COLLARED SHIRT. I MADE MY SONS PUT ON COLLARED SHIRTS.

    6. THERE WAS A HOT TRANNY THERE. SHE LOOKED LIKE A WOMAN, TOO, BUT I SAW HER IN THE BATHROOM TOUCHING UP HER FACE SPACKLE AND I NOTICED A FIVE O'CLOCK SHADOW STARTING TO EMERGE. THEN I TOOK A CLOSER LOOK AND IT WAS DEFINITELY A MAN. HE HAD ON A GREAT SLUTTY DRESS. I WANTED TO KNOW WHERE HE GOT IT BUT I DIDN'T FEEL UP TO TALKING CLOTHES WITH A TRANNY IN THE BATHROOM AT A UFC FIGHT.

    I HOPE I NEVER GO TO ONE OF THOSE THINGS AGAIN. BOYS ARE WEIRD.

    SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD PLACE TO GET PICKED UP BY A TRANNY. COUNT ME OUT.

    I ACCIDENTALLY SLEPT IN LATE, SO I DIDN'T GET LIFESKILL PRACTICE IN TODAY. I DID PUT ON MY 36" WRAPS AND DO SOME SPEEDBAG WORK(BRAND NEW BAG, OFF-BRAND). WELL, MY NEW STAKES ARRIVED, SO I DID BEGIN PLANNING OUT HOW I WILL USE MUH NEW CABLE TO LASH DOWN MUH HEAVYBAG STAND. IT WILL BE NICE TO BE ABLE TO DO 8 LIMB DRILLS AGAIN.

    I LIKE TO SLEEP WHEN I HAVE GOOD DREAMS BUT I'M A DROOLER AND IT'S KIND OF NASTY WAKING UP IN A PUDDLE.

    BREATHING...WAIT UNTIL YOUR SON HITS PUBERTY AND YOU GET A WHIFF OF MAN FUNK.

    POOPING IS ENJOYABLE. ESPECIALLY SINCE I GOT MY SQUATTY POTTY/SUDOOKIE PUZZLE/KINDLE SET UP BY THE TOILET IN THE MASTER BATH. THE KIDS CALL IT MY HABITAT.


    EATING AND DRINKING WINE/COFFEE (DEPENDING ON THE TIME OF DAY) ARE TWO OF MY FAVORITE LIFESKILLS.



    THE COFFEE HELPS WITH THE POOPING LIFESKILL.

    KILLING FLIES. FOR SOME REASON, WE STARTED GETTING FLIES IN OUR HOUSE. THEY'RE DRIVING ME CRAZY AND I GOT SICK OF SWATTING THEM SO I BOUGHT A FLY ZAPPER. THAT THING IS A PIECE OF $#@!. I GOT SO EXCITED WHEN THE FIRST FLY HIT IT....THEN HE GOT UP AND FLEW AWAY. I'VE WATCHED THREE FLIES (OR I GUESS IT COULD BE THE SAME DUMB FLY) FLY INTO THAT THING AND GET UP AND FLY OFF. I ALSO THINK I HEARD THEM LAUGHING AT ME.

    I DON'T THINK I WANT TO SPRAY THAT IN MY KITCHEN. I TURNED OFF ALL THE LIGHTS DOWNSTAIRS EXCEPT THE BATHROOM LIGHT AND TOOK MY FLY SWATTER TO THE POTTY WITH ME. ALL THE FLIES CONGREGATED ON THE VANITY AND I SAT THERE PICKING THEM OFF LIKE...FLIES. POTTY FLY KILLING CUT INTO MY SUDOOKIE TIME (I HAVE A PUZZLE WHERE I'M TRYING TO GET ALL THE NUMBERS IN ORDER AND NOT MAKE ANY NOTES) BUT I THINK IT WAS TIME WELL SPENT.

    I HAVE THE PLACE ALL TO MYSELF TODAY.

    I READ ALL ABOUT FLIES. I THINK I FOUND THE SOURCE OF OUR FLY PROBLEM (DOG $#@! AND A BIG CRACK IN OUR GARBAGE CAN) AND I ALSO READ THAT THE BEST WAY TO KEEP THEM FROM COMING IN YOUR HOUSE IS TO PUT A FAN NEAR THE DOOR THAT THEY'RE COMING IN - SOMETHING ABOUT HOW THEY HANG OUT THERE BECAUSE OF THE "DEAD" AIR. I SET UP A FAN BY THE GARAGE DOOR TO THE HOUSE - THEY'RE COMING IN THERE BECAUSE I MOVED THE WATER COOLER TO THE GARAGE TO KEEP PEOPLE FROM TRACKING THROUGH THE HOUSE WET TO GET A CUP OF WATER. ANYWAY, THAT DOOR GETS OPENED A LOT AND THE KIDS ARE STANDING THERE GETTING WATER WITH THE DOOR OPEN LETTING IN THE FLIES - THE FLIES ARE COMING IN THE GARAGE FOR THE TRASH CAN WITH THE CRACK - THEY ARE ATTRACTED TO THE AREA AROUND THE GARAGE BECAUSE MY DOGE IS $#@!TING IN THE DRIVEWAY. I LEAVE THE GARAGE DOOR OPEN ALL THE TIME, TOO. WE'LL SEE IF THE FAN WORKS.

    @Suzanimal, I'm nursing a little hangover, so I just might!

    Based on the idea of natural rights, government secures those rights to the individual by strictly negative intervention, making justice costless and easy of access; and beyond that it does not go. The State, on the other hand, both in its genesis and by its primary intention, is purely anti-social. It is not based on the idea of natural rights, but on the idea that the individual has no rights except those that the State may provisionally grant him. It has always made justice costly and difficult of access, and has invariably held itself above justice and common morality whenever it could advantage itself by so doing.
